Nature of the Beast

My Big Bad Wolf Wedding
This is a watchable, fun movie with a slightly inept groom who a lso just happens to be a werewolf. His 'on top of it' fiancée takes matters into her own hands to make sure to keep their wedding from getting too hairy.
The transformations are goofy and his makeup is Lon Cheny meets Philys Diller. The Alpha wolf however is a complete transformation with unusual legs and jumping characteristics.
This is not a run out to the theatres type movie but good fun for werewolf genre fans.

Nature of the Beast
A made for t.v. comedy, I missed this when it first came out. Anyways that, if you watched the show Ugly Betty, you'll recognize the villian as having played a part in it.

As a romance-comedy where the guy is seeking to lift his curse of werewolfism and his bride-to-be is helping him lift it. It wasn't bad. Many of the actors did very well, there's only one, the guy who played the news report that was just bad acting all around and terrible, over the top and trying to outdo the stars and proper co-star.

Overall the movie has me wanting to compare it with Teenwolf, also done as a comedy, somewhate and for quality.

Also being something of an amatuer werewolf expert, I surprised with how much they drew from an almost obsure source with their werewolf lore for the movie.

Fun and Funny Movie
Looking for a fun, comedy/supernatural movie? Now available on DVD from Anchor Bay Entertainment, Nature of the Beast is the movie for you.

With a mix of the funny and the sweet, Nature of the Beast makes it a popcorn flick that actually has a well-written storyline. Starting with the basic idea that "every man is hiding something," this film takes a hilarious look at the problems with living with a werewolf. Will Julia still marry her beloved Rich when she finds out that three days out of the month Rich is a true monster?

Nature of the Beast stars Eddie Kaye Thomas, (American Pie movies, Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle), Autumn Reeser ("The O.C.," "Pushing Daisies"), Eric Mabius ("Ugly Betty," "CSI: Miami"). Since I was a big fan of Eric I was happy to see him in the film. His role isn't a huge part of the movie, but it's a good one.

It's a hard to balance the funny and the serious emotional moments, but Nature of the Beast does so beautifully...
